Craig Loehle</h1>
<h2> Credentials</h2>
<ul><li>
Ph.D., Range Management (mathematical ecology), Colorado State University.</li>
<li>
M.S., Forest Management, University of Washington.</li>

<h2> Background</h2>
<p>Craig Loehle is the principal scientist with the National Council for Air and Stream Improvement, which was established in 1943 by the pulp and paper industry to “provide technical assistance for the industry’s goal of lowering the ecological impact of its spent pulping liquors.” <a href="#s2">[2]</a></p>
<p>Loehle worked in the Environmental Research Division at Argonne National Laboratory 1991-1998 and was a Research Ecologist at Savannah River Laboratory from 1987-1991</p>
<h2>
Stance on Climate Change</h2>
<p>“I am not a 'denialist' and my recent paper… attributes about 40% of recent warming to human activity – estimating that this equates to a no-feedback atmosphere.<br /><br />
“What I would deny is that tree rings are good thermometers, but this is a scientific view based on my knowledge of trees, not a political view.” <a href="#s3">[3]</a></p>
<h2>
Key Quotes</h2>
<blockquote>
<p>“The climate change “biodiversity crisis” is like a whack-a-mole game (a carnival game where plastic animals pop out of holes and you try to whack them with a mallet), with an almost-daily claim popping up about this species or that at risk from climate change. Not just polar bears and coral reefs, but even avocados are going to disappear! Whacking each silly claim one by one is an impossible task, and the claims get into public consciousness whereas the refutations do not.” <a href="#s10">[10]</a></p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>“I am not part of a conspiracy and am not directed by anyone. I have never received money from fossil fuel interests, as Mann states is true of all sceptics. On the contrary, I work for the <span class="caps">US</span> wood products industry (which has no official position on climate change and does not tell me what to say or think). This industry is the largest single renewable fuels user because it uses wood waste to generate steam and power at paper mills. It is also the largest recycler (of paper), plants millions of trees every year, and manages millions of acres of forest land to ensure protection of wildlife. Only a fraction of my work concerns climate change.” <a href="#s3">[3]</a></p>
</blockquote>
<blockquote>
<p>“Within the United States, the claim that bad climate effects can 'already' be detected is a totally subjective and unsupported hypothetical.”<a href="#s4"> [4]</a></p>

<p><strong>May, 2012</strong></p>
<p>Craig Loehle was a <a href="http://climateconference.heartland.org/speakers/">speaker </a>at the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Heartland_Institute">Heartland Institute</a>'s Seventh International Conference on Climate Change <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/joe-bast-announces-death-denial-palooza-final-heartland-iccc-conference">(<span class="caps">ICCC</span>7)</a>.</p>
<p>DeSmogBlog<a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/heartland-denial-palooza-sponsors-have-received-67-million-exxonmobil-koch-and-scaife-foundations"> researched the co-sponsors behind Heartland's <span class="caps"><span class="caps"><span class="caps">ICCC</span>7</span></span></a> and found that they had collectively received <strong>over $67 million</strong> from ExxonMobil, the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Koch_Brothers" target="_blank">Koch Brothers </a>and the conservative <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Scaife_Foundations" target="_blank">Scaife family foundations</a>.</p>
<p><strong>2011</strong></p>
<p>Co-authored a study<a href="http://www.benthamscience.com/open/toascj/articles/V005/74TOASCJ.pdf"> (<span class="caps">PDF</span>)</a> with fellow climate change skeptic <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/nicola-scafetta">Nicola Scafetta</a>. The study, titled “Climate Change Attribution Using Empirical Decomposition of Climatic Data,” contends that “current models underestimate the strength of natural multidecadal cycles in the temperature records, the anthropogenic contribution to climate change since 1850 should be less than half of that previously claimed by the <span class="caps">IPCC</span>.” <a href="#s5">[5]</a></p>
<p><strong>March 8 - 10, 2009</strong></p>
<p>Loehle was a <a href="http://www.viddler.com/v/288472a0">speaker</a> at the Heartland Institute's 2009 International Conference on Climate Change (<span class="caps">ICCC</span>2).</p>
<p>His presentation was titled “1,500-Year Climate Cycles, Broken Hockey Sticks, and Ocean Cooling.” <a href="#s6">[6]</a></p>
<p>DeSmogBlog <a href="../../heartland-institutes-2009-climate-conference-new-york-funding-history-sponsors">researched the funding behind Heartland's Second International Conference on Climate Change</a>, and found that sponsor organizations had received over $47 million in funding from energy companies and right-wing foundations, with 78% of that total coming from the <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php/Scaife_Foundations" target="_blank">Scaife Family of foundations</a>.</p>
<p><strong>2007</strong></p>
<p>Published a paper in <em>Energy <span class="amp">&amp;</span> Environment </em>titled <a href="http://www.drroyspencer.com/wp-content/uploads/Loehle-2000-year-non-treering-temp-reconstruction-Energy-and-Environment.pdf">“A 2000 Year Global Temperature Reconstruction based on Non-Treering Proxy Data” (<span class="caps">PDF</span>)</a> which set out to refute Michael Mann's “Hockey Stick” data.</p>
<p>The original study, <a href="http://www.realclimate.org/index.php/archives/2007/12/past-reconstructions/">which contained numerous issues</a>, was corrected in a subsequent publication. According to<em> RealClimate</em>, the corrected study still contained inappropriate data selection, or the calibration and validation issues. <a href="#s7">[7]</a></p>
<p>Loehle <a href="http://wattsupwiththat.com/2010/09/28/loehle-vindication/">commented</a> on the corrected study at <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/anthony-watts">Anthony Watts'</a> blog Watts Up With That (<span class="caps">WUWT</span>).</p>

Has beens, also-rans, deniers-for-hire on retainer at “think tank”</h3>
<p><strong>Update: <a href="http://www.mtu.edu/news/stories/2012/february/story63491.html">13th scientist disavows Heartland connection</a></strong> (See: Watkins at bottom of this post)</p>
<p>The Heartland Institute maintains a stable of 13 scientists on retainer for the express purpose of attacking the work of the Nobel Prize winning <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intergovernmental_Panel_on_Climate_Change">Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change</a> (<span class="caps">IPCC</span>), according to <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/sites/beta.desmogblog.com/files/%281-15-2012%29%202012%20Heartland%20Budget%20%282%29.pdf">budget</a> information released last week in the <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/heartland-insider-exposes-institute-s-budget-and-strategy">Heartland document dump</a>.</p>
<p>The scientists, ranging from one of the world's least credible deniers-for-hire (<a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/no-apology-is-owed-dr-s-fred-singer-and-none-will-be-forthcoming">Dr. S. Fred Singer</a>) to a sessional lecturer on the evolution and history of the domestic dog (<a href="http://anthropology.uvic.ca/people/faculty/adjunct_and_sessional.php">Susan Crockford</a>), include no top climate scientists currently publishing in the peer-reviewed literature.</p>
<p>The best paid “expert” on the Heartland list is <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/craig-idso">Craig Idso,</a> a former Director of Environmental Science at Peabody Energy (the largest coal company in the world). Heartland pays Idso $11,600 a month through his <a href="http://motherjones.com/environment/2009/12/dirty-dozen-climate-change-denial-11-idso-family%20%20">Center for the Study of <span class="caps">CO</span>2 <span class="amp">&amp;</span> Global Change</a>, which like the Heartland Institute, has charitable status and therefore operates with an effective subsidy from the American taxpayer. (Funny how quick libertarians are to fleece old Uncle Sam when <span class="caps">THEY</span> get to kick the money back to their rich friends.)</p>
<!--break-->
<p>Coming in at $5,000 a month is Idso's principal partner in the regular <span class="caps">IPCC</span> attack, <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/s-fred-singer">Fred Singer</a>, who for the last 20 years has denied pretty much any health threat with a corporate sponsor: the health impacts of second-hand smoke; coal's role in creating acid rain; the danger of asbestos; or <span class="caps">DDT</span>; the role of <span class="caps">CFC</span>s in creating the ozone hole; and, of course, the human cause and potential consequences of climate change. (See Naomi Oreskes excellent book, <a href="http://www.merchantsofdoubt.org/">Merchants of Doubt</a> for the full, devastating story ot Singer's lucrative denial business.)</p>
<p>Together, Idso and Singer developed what they call the <a href="http://www.skepticalscience.com/denialgate-highlights-heartlands-selective-nipcc-science.html">Nongovernmental International Panel on Climate Change</a> (<span class="caps">NIPCC</span>), which Heartland funds as “the most comprehensive and authoritative rebuttal of the United Nations’ <span class="caps">IPCC</span> reports.”</p>
<p>Number 3 on the list of Heartland's beneficiaries, at $1,667 a month, is the Australian <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/rm-bob-carter#s3">Robert Carter</a>, a geologist at James Cook University in Queensland and a staff member for the<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institute_of_Public_Affairs"> Institute of Public Affairs</a>, an Australian think tank which, like the Heartland Institute,<a href="http://www.exxonsecrets.org/html/personfactsheet.php?id=1134"> takes funding from the tobacco and oil industries</a>.</p>
<p>The fourth, fifth and sixth experts on Heartland's anonymous donor dole, all at $1,000 a month, are <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/madhav-khandekar">Madhav Khandekar</a>, <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/congressman-calls-hearing-heartland-institute-payments-federal-employee-indur-goklany">Indur Goklany</a> and <a href="http://www.exxonsecrets.org/html/personfactsheet.php?id=5">Robert Balling</a>. Khandekar is another think-tank double-dipper, a retired Environment Canada researcher who <a href="http://www.fraserinstitute.org/author.aspx?id=14931&amp;txID=2833">also shows up</a> on the experts list at the Canadian think tank, the Fraser Institute, which subsidized an earlier <span class="caps">IPCC</span> attack called the <a href="http://sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Independent_Summary_for_Policymakers">Independent Summary for Policymakers</a>. Khandekar has also been an “expert” on other discredited climate change denial organizations, including<a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Friends_of_Science"> Friends of Science and the Natural Resources Stewardship Project.</a></p>
<p>Goklany, a Senior Advisor at the <span class="caps"><span class="caps">U.S.</span></span> Interior Department, is <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/congressman-calls-hearing-heartland-institute-payments-federal-employee-indur-goklany">currently under scrutiny</a> over whether the funding he has accepted from Heartland violates <span class="caps">U.S.</span> law against federal employees taking payments that could put them in conflict with their governmental duties.</p>
<p>And <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_Balling">Robert Balling</a> is a geography professor at Arizona State who turns up as an expert on several industry funded<a href="http://www.exxonsecrets.org/html/personfactsheet.php?id=5"> (taxpayer subsidized) policy hothouses</a> masquerading as “think tanks” and educational organizations. Balling was a trendsetter among climate-change deniers for hire, working as early as the late 1990s for the coal barons of the Western Fuels Association on its <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greening_Earth_Society">Greening Earth Society</a> project.</p>
<p>Coming in with a lower profile and a lower monthly retainer ($750 a month) are <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/anthony-lupo">Anthony Lupo</a>, and Canadian “Terrestrial Animal” specialists Crockford (the dog expert from the University of Victoria) and Mitch Taylor, a <a href="http://geography.lakeheadu.ca/taylor/taylor.html">contract lecturer </a>at the Lakehead University who has argued that polar bears are in no danger from climate change.</p>
<p>The weather forecaster <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_D%27Aleo">Joe D’Aleo</a> gets just $500 a month, (kid-stuff compared to the <a href="http://wattsupwiththat.com/2012/02/15/some-notes-on-the-heartland-leak/">$88,000 that Heartland is kicking over</a> to D'Aleo's meteorological colleague Anthony Watts). D'Aleo, co-founder of The Weather Channel, predicted in the 2008 Farmers Almanac that the world was entering a cooling phase. (No word whether he updated that prediction after <a href="http://www.nasa.gov/topics/earth/features/temp-analysis-2009.html">2009 was the second hottest year on record</a> and <a href="http://www.nasa.gov/home/hqnews/2011/jan/HQ_11-014_Warmest_Year.html">2010 tied for the hottest</a>.)</p>
<p>It must be disappointing to be <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Willie_Soon">Willie Soon</a>, at just $125 a month. Soon is an astrophysicist at the <a class="mw-redirect" href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harvard-Smithsonian_Center_for_Astrophysics" title="Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics">Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics</a>. But his credibility has sustained a series of terrible blows. It was reported last year, for example, that he took took more than $1 million in funding from oil and coal companies, including the Koch Foundation, Southern and Exxon. He'd earlier been reportedly taking money from the American Petroleum Institute and he and <a href="http://www.desmogblog.com/sallie-baliunas">Sallie Baliunas</a> had a paper discredited in the journal Climate Research (it was so bad, <a href="http://chronicle.com/article/Storm-Brews-Over-Global/27779">the editor resigned in protest</a>).</p>
<p>Also budgeted at $125 a month are <a href="http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Craig_Loehle">Craig Loehle</a>, a pulp and paper industry scientist, and <strike><a href="http://www.hu.mtu.edu/hu_dept/faculty_staff/single_fac_pages/watkins.php">David Watkins,</a> who appears to be a water resources specialist in the civil and environmental engineering department at Michigan Tech. </strike>There being no obvious public record of Watkins having said anything embarrassingly silly about climate science, it's not immediately clear what his name is doing on the Heartland list.</p>
<p><strong>Update: David Watkins, Associate Professor and Graduate Program Director at Michigan Tech contacted the DeSmogBlog today to say:</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p><strong>I have had no contact with the Heartland Institute, have not received [nor have been offered] any funding from them, and have no idea how I ended up in their 2012 budget. M(y) university administration is trying to contact Heartland to find out how this misuse of my name occurred.</strong><br /> </p>
</blockquote>
<p><strong>Apologies to Dr. Watkins for any embarrassment we might have caused him by repeating the erroneous, and potentially damaging, contention that he was accepting money from Heartland. Read the <a href="http://www.mtu.edu/news/stories/2012/february/story63491.html">official response from Michigan Tech University</a>.</strong></p>
